Jarrod Fairclough – Last weekend I sat down with my best pal Beaker Matt to watch The Muppet Christmas Carol. I’m a hardcore super fan who can recite the film in its entirety, and he owns the DVD and watches it once in a blue moon. In Part 1 we discussed the music, Michael Caine and horror…
Jarrod Fairclough – Ask any Muppet fan their favorite Christmas film, and they’ll no doubt say The Muppet Christmas Carol. Which is fair enough, because it’s an incredible film. It’s also one of those rare Muppet projects where many non-hardcore fans look back on it fondly as a Christmas tradition. So I thought I’d get together…
Jarrod Fairclough – Hang the stockings on the tree, it’s Christmas again! Yes folks, it’s that time of year again when we come together with the ones we love to celebrate the holidays with love, gifts, and lots of food (darn my new diet!) To celebrate, Sesame Street have made a new Christmas special, ‘Once Upon…
Jarrod Fairclough – 5 years ago the world sat in cinemas and saw the long awaited return of a bunch of lovable characters from the 70’s – The Muppets! After a few years of being teased with news by writer and star Jason Segel, life finally became a happy song as we were introduced to Walter,…

Having missed out on the experience for the past two years, it was a thrill to get to return. Having not much time to do my usual preparation of finding who I wanted to…
Neil McNally – As I write this review, it is September 24th, Jim Henson’s birthday. It is always a day worthy of celebrating, good thoughts for the world, and warm memories of the past. No better example of this can be found than in the new 30th anniversary re-release of “Labyrinth on DVD/Blu-Ray, and 4K Ultra…
A while back our pal Rachel Herrick reviewed every Muppet movie for us! She’s back with another one of her video reviews, this time on the classic film Labyrinth, currently celebrating its 30th anniversary. Welcome back, Rachel!
Jarrod Fairclough – Live Muppet events are always risky. At the Montreal Just For Laughs Gala a few years ago there were lip syncing issues and heads galore. Which is to be expected, of course, as a live event has far less preparation and more unexpected issues. But you wouldn’t think that watching The Electric Mayhem’s first…
Lucas Ervin – Happy Thursday, everyone… And ya know, it’s a great day to be happy, because I finally get to review Diamond Select’s first wave of Muppet figures. We get seven characters in this first batch– Kermit, Fozzie, Gonzo, Scooter, Robin, Camilla and (for the first time ever) Bean Bunny. As I’ve stated before, this…
Michael Wermuth Jnr – Sesame Street Presents: Follow That Bird is the first of two Sesame Street movies. Released in 1985, the movie finds Big Bird coming to the attention of the Feathered Friends, a group of birds dedicated to providing stray birds with nice bird families.
